Alien Angel

The pink monster then watched the hero she was told about. Before arriving at Castleburg, one of her "Infinite" team members had given her a general rundown on some of the hero's from Hero One to keep an eye out for. Not just Patricia. But as she watched her take down the Roman-looking villain with some earth-based shock wave, she instantly knew she was looking at the one called Quake.

Then again, who didn't know about a S Class Hero with a destructive power as hers. She remembered her having a low I.Q. number now that she remembered but the way she handled that fight was professional...she had half expected her to bring down the whole store around them.

But then again, the way that she ignored the "pink monster" in the room and just left like nothing happened...

"...few french fries short of a happy meal that one", the monster said.

Seeing that the villain was obviously not going anywhere and his Ogre scared out of it's own mind, the "Infinite" vigilante member, Alien Angel flew out through the hole in the way the Ogre made and began following the Hero One member Quake from the air. After some time, she saw her car suddenly stop.

Alien Angel then took note of the person in the middle of the street with another one with...some whips? Probably another villain. The chaos that Seraph's televised announcement made did look like it was drawing out more than just EAGLES members.

Floating down behind Quake, she tried again at an intro.

"...ok again, why hello there!...are you by any chance Quake from Hero One?", she asked but slightly annoyed tone.

Alpha / K Nine

As Alpha waited at Pandora's front door, he focused his Ki energy into his ears because he thought he heard something but then heard Pandora acknowledging his presence so immediately shut down the power...again, he "generally" knew what to expect from her.

"General" though wasn't exactly good intel though.

Then, she opened the door and K Nine stood at attention. Being in a military family, one thing he did learn was respecting not only superiors but his elders. And after what Christina generally said about her, she was well beyond being an elder. But he also knew that when you fight for so long...even more so, much MUCH longer than any normal person, it may have an effect on one's mind.

After all, he was only six years old when THAT incident happened...and he saw very early how dangerous the world can be...and how it changed him...

When she spoke, it was with the standard greeting but then she guessed that it had something to do with the EAGLES. In a way, that was correct but it wasn't the only reason.

Then K Nine did something rather out of character for a member of CPD SWAT team interviewing someone.

He briefly saluted her before returning to a normal posture.

"...yes ma'am...records had shown that you had been recently added to the HERO One roster...though rather recent, CPD feared that you'd be a target just because of a..."slight" chance that you'd have information on a group of suspects...I'll start there. Has there been anyone suspicious either asking questions or lurking around your store...or any general harassment situations by any such individuals...", K Nine asked monotone.

* * * * * * * * * *

Alien Angel

During the clash at the Target store where Quake was fighting with both Nero and his giant Ogre, someone...or someTHING, had seen the commotion as it was flying around outside. The people that were running to escape in a panic was the first clue...then, as the "pink" looking monster flew closer, the giant hole in the wall near the front entrance was the second.

Then, said pink monster flew into the giant hole with a sense of elegance as it slightly floated there an inch off the ground. It then looked around and saw the three individuals going at it.

"AAHHH! That damn villain has another monster with him!", a male target store clerk said.

"UUhh...no. Try again", the pink monster said, slightly annoyed.

The monster really did look alien...or perhaps some random "leftover" no one had ever seen. It did have some clothing on though. Just a pair of sweat pants and a t-shirt but much like the monsters skin itself, both articles of clothing were pink just like her skin. She even had a tiny pink backpack to boot.

"Well...what did I miss?...ooohhh...I see the problem...ok first off. All civilians please leave the store if you value your safety!", the pink monster said as she floated slightly towards the giant Ogre but stopped just short.

Then, she seemed to call out to Nero.

"...to use an internet meme, why hello there!...is this your pet Ogre?", she then asked.

Alpha / K Nine

Location: Pandora's Potts

Interactions: Anyone present at Pandora's Potts

Note: The passage with the italic font was done with Hitman on Discord.

A black sports motor cycle soon pulled up to the corner of the street just some distance away from Pandora's Potts. What made this odd was the rider himself. He was all dressed up in what appeared to be a black CPD SWAT uniform. Some weapons were even attached on his person. But when you consider the chaotic situation that was taking place in Castleburg right now, perhaps the sight itself wasn't that odd.

But for Alpha aka K Nine, it felt almost like he was in a war zone.

At the moment, he was just going off of what second commander Christina had told him but had a feeling he'd find one or more of the "targets" here at Pandora's Potts. After all, after what Christina told him about Pandora...her heroic exploits over multiple lifetimes...who she REALLY was of all thing among little info's on her. Considering Powers himself is M.I.A. and second commander Christina was conducting her own investigation into this matter, the only true "senior" that anyone could trust right now with leadership was Pandora.

As he parked the motorcycle in a nearby alley, he quickly reflected on information he had learned about...one of which a conversation he had with his comm's device.

* * * * * * * * * *

"...K Nine reporting Detective...", he said monotone.

A gruff, hardened tone rattled back through the comm, an older man's voice, perhaps in his 50s, a battle-weary tone weaving through his words. "Hear you loud and clear. What's the situation over there?" the voice barked.

"...put bluntly sir, not good...it seems the EAGLES found your s-...got to suspect Firebird first. He..."resisted arrest" by assaulting hero Rubber Man. Despite using some high tech weapon, he defeated him but was weakened enough for a second individual to incapacitate him. Witnesses state that they drove off with him in a plain black van. Unmarked and no license plates...", K Nine reported, correcting his earlier part of the statement.

Roger von Brandt was currently driving a Mr. Softee's Ice Cream truck through New Athens, looking for clues or anything that could help as he made his way through the area. As his vehicle stopped at a red light, he lifted his microphone, so to avoid burdening Alpha was unnecessary noise, before looking over his shoulder. "I don't know why the fuck I'm now an ambulance driver..." he grumbled, looking at the person in the back of the ice cream truck. Instead of ice cream, the truck was currently storing a tall, black, muscled man, covered in a light blue blanket, covered in bruises and gashes of rather large magnitude. Roger shook his head. "Well, no use in complaining now..." he added, before turning his eyes back to the road and lowering his mic. "Anything else of note in the area, K9?"

"...just one more thing...witnesses literally across this street I'm on said they saw...some monster...one thought it was some flying leftover but...that it looked beautiful...I'm sorry detective but...if I remember right...I remember police and criminals in another city make similar reports...which means...", K Nine said, trailing off.

"Left-whatever?" Roger asked, confused. He did not share his son's knowledge on HERO-related terminology (as limited as that knowledge is).

"...those weird monsters we sometimes deal with...though they said this one was pink...I know of one that matches that description...Alien Angel. She works for that vigilante group called "Infinite"...as if this situation isn't chaotic enough...", K Nine monotone.

* * * * * * * * * *

It was bad enough all of this was happening within the city but NOW the infamous "Infinite" vigilante group had sent their "Recon" member Alien Angel to check things out...as if EAGLES running around acting like THEY were the law was bad enough.

It really DID feel like a war zone right now...but the Castleburg Police Department or CPD weren't taking this lying down either.

For one, they had already sent a investigation and forensic science team to Club 27 to determine cause of death among other information vital to the case that Seraph was making against Patricia. Though if it did involve a super power, forensic's may not be able to prove anything but at the same time, that wouldn't help Seraph either. All Seraph was doing essentially was "finger pointing" and using his charisma with the general public to gain favor.

But his method's were his mistake. Hijacking every general media outlet, T.V.'s and radio's included, was no different than when super villain Caustic did when he publicly humiliate and execute then Wing's of Law member Rainbow Dancer. That was law breaking right there...hell, that was terrorism. As such, CPD were even looking for him and his whereabouts. Add to the fact that Sir E. Burm had hired lawyers to challenge the charges and even Starbright using his own charisma to support Patricia on social media further threw doubt into the wind on Seraph's actions or at least that's how he felt about it.

That didn't stop EAGLES members though. Reports even said that some were villains...and they were all hunting those on Seraph's hit list.

Then there was the I.C.O.S.A...last he heard, they were hesitating to take a side in this. Even more so if they heard that Seraph found a way to take down Hugo Powers. They felt that if they just sent every international hero into Castleburg to resolve this incident, Seraph would use whoever or whatever he used on Powers to defend himself. Collateral damage and possibly civilian casualties would be massive...deadly...worse than...well any damages that Hero One themselves ever did on any of their missions.

Which mean't that it was most likely up to them...the remaining members of "Hero One", to fix this whole mess. But first things first...he had to find Patricia and others before any EAGLES members did.

K Nine didn't bother with stealth here. Even in all uniform, he didn't want to provoke a fight even if anyone inside the store didn't trust him...still, if he was forced to make an arrest, he'd rather it be the CPD rather than the EAGLES. Even if they didn't know it, the CPD was no fan of Seraph right now but they couldn't just sit on their rears and do nothing either.

He then knocked.

"...Miss Pandora...this is Alpha aka K Nine...member of Hero One now officially with CPD SWAT...please let me in...we need to talk...", K Nine said monotone.

《 H. E. R. O. 》

Sorry for the double post everyone but Hitman contacted me through Discord and approved of the profile. Alien Angel is here ^_^

《 H. E. R. O. 》

Not sure if this is any different when I last posted it Hitman but here's my second character idea.

Alien Angel

Name
Terra (Doesn't know her real name if any.)

Hero Name
Alien Angel

Gender
Female

Age
18 (Or so she guesses.)

Date of Birth
Doesn't know.

Physique
Terra stands 5'8" and while she doesn't talk about her weight, she looks incredibly slim and has green eyes. She has blonde hair but often dye's it green as a cover. Because she's always on the move, she'd wear just about any sort of female clothing or even some male's for a tomboy appearance. Her alter ego state has her with pink colored skin and hair with red eyes with not too much of a physical appearance in sizes.

Blood Type
Doesn't know.

Occupation
Vigilante

Side
Hero

Affiliation
Infinite (Vigilante group she works for)

Tier
B

Personality
Once a shy individual, Terra is now quite outspoken. She's not afraid to speak her mind which has caused her to get into trouble in certain cases. Sometimes in the heat of combat, she also shows signs of anger if she's pushed too far due to her upbringing and horrible experiences which are explained below.

She also has trouble with authority. Hence the reason for her occupation. Terra's experiences had led her to believe that the rules are there just for the bad guys to take advantage of. So she works behind the scene's most of the time. She doesn't do the job for the glory or recognition but to keep others from going through the same fate she went through like any superhero with a tragic past. But it's because of this that she has trouble working with those that have to be "control freaks" as she puts it.

Despite the above, she can be cooperative in terms of observation. Because of the group she now works for, she has learned to follow orders to some extent. And because of her abilites, she tends to do "Recon" in city limits to report on anything happening within said city to keep others informed about any recent events. While she may not listen to those from official super hero organizations like H.E.R.O. and I.C.O.S.A., she mysteriously follows her group's orders.

To sum it up, Terra is a big mouth and a rarely-shown temper but with a heart of gold. She will stick up for the little people who get bullied regardless of who the bully is.

Backstory
For Terra, life was the ultimate joke. At least, that's how she saw it since even she can't recall much before being stuck in a random lab being experimented on.

Similar to perhaps another H.E.R.O., Terra was one of perhaps many test subjects done to splice "Leftovers" with human DNA to create a new lifeform. Terra was, sadly, one of those test subjects. The pain...the experimentation...it was so much that her mind was shattered until accepting the fact that she was no longer normal even when compared to others with superpowers.

Even if she still "looked" human.

There, in that hidden lab, she was subject to countless routines. Running till absolute exaustion. Training against detained Leftovers that the scientists there somehow caught and preserved for combat tests. All of which she was brutalized but still lived despite the injuries taken. She had wished it had all ended at many points. That her life would just end.

But for some reason, it was replaced with anger...a "silent" anger.

Eventually, she had kept her wits about her. For one, she had heard a scientist say that she was a "successful" experiment but weren't sure in what way. Other than perhaps a minor healing factor, no other powers or physical changes in apperance were present. But that her blood and the other "Leftover" one had mergered perfectly. Hence why she didn't need to be on constant life support like others have. Still, they continued their routines with her. Hoping for perhaps some sort of breakthrough.

And they sure as hell got one.

One day, she was drugged up with some new experimental drug at the time called Isolene and put on many restrains. One of which was a straight jacket and handcuffs of all things on both her hands and feet. Pretending to be doped up from the amount of Isolene used, she heard them saying that they were abandoning the lab, stating that the "main lab" had been compromised and they were moving all "vital" test subjects to new locations till further notice. Terra was mostly isolated so she didn't know how many other "vitals" there were. But now, it seemed things were falling apart for her captors. Sad as it was, she had to worry about herself.

Then, during one night two or so years ago in New York, many reports were being called in to 911 operators that citizens had heard an inhuman scream and something flying through the air in the night sky of New York. Some time later, a random group of Hero's had found an unmarked dark van completely knocked over on it's side. Around it were injured and armed criminals with fracture injuries and two badly injured scientists that were suspects in illegal experimentations. All of them scared out of their minds. There was also a torn up straight jacket along with pairs of broken handcuffs.

Terra had gotten lucky that night in more than one way. Because just has she made her move for an escape attempt, she was actually rescued by a vigilante group simply called "Infinite". Unlike the police and other hero's, they were bending the rules when trying to track down these hidden labs and experimentations. At first, Terra didn't want anything to do with them since it took them so long to find her and whatever was possibly left of the lab.

But it turns out, Infinite had a few members who were also subject to such experiments. They even apologized to her for taking so long to find the lab she was in. Despite the mistrust, she decided to go with the group since she didn't have a plan past just escaping from the lab.

Then, stories were being told around New York about a pink monster that preyed on anyone who saw it. But at the same time, how majestic it looked. Due to the sheer number of sights and cases that came forward involving it, both criminals and even law enforcement gave it a name.

"Alien Angel" was born.

Powers
Transformation - It took some time but Terra has learned to control her appearance between her human self and her "Leftover" self. Though when in human form, she still retains her now higher level healing factor as well as increased resistances to harmful drugs and diseases.

But when she transforms, she gains the ability of flight and becomes slightly stronger and tougher than a normal human. However, she becomes incredibly quick. Both her running and flight speed have her going around 80 mph. Her senses of smell, sight and hearing go up as well as gaining sharp claws on both her hands and feet.

Other
Terra isn't the only vigilante. As stated above, she works for a group simply called "Infinite" as their on-site recon operative. Similar to perhaps the Zero Organization, it's motives, most of it's members and even their leader are a mystery but unlike Zero, they are actually helping with any troublemakers in todays society. But there are stories that they have "killed" high level supervillain and, as such, are also wanted criminals by other organizations from H.E.R.O. to the I.C.O.S.A. Despite this, the few members that make up their organization have so far eluded capture. It's even said that wherever Zero has a presence, you can expect to see "Alien Angel" not too far behind.

Alpha / K Nine

Location: "The Coliseum" area

Alpha knew he was in trouble. If he had heard right from Brum, the Ogre's were of a higher rank than him. Sure, Alpha knew better than to judge strength and abilities by a mere "grade" but he wasn't making any headway in this fight.

Now down in one knee, Alpha couldn't maintain his ki so he stopped glowing. The Ogre, though, did have some minor injuries since it was breathing heavily but that was about it. It had advantage and it knew it.

Alpha had done a good job with hit and run tactic's since it was clearly slower than him. But it's strength and durability were just too high for Alpha to do any meaningful damage to it. And while he avoided every one of it's strikes, it was clear that Alpha was just prolonging the inevitable.

Then the Ogre got moving suddenly...it dived right at him...and Alpha just did what he could and braced for the impact.

And everything went black.

* * * * * * * * * *

"..."

"..."

"...wh...what?...what did I do?!...wh-who is that on the floor?"

"..."

"...babysitter...your hurt..."

"SON!"

"...Dad!...th-that...villain...I...I...I...I-I-I-I..."

"...it's fine son...your going to be ok...but this is my fault..."

"...no...I...I killed him...I...I..."

* * * * * * * * * *

It was then that Alpha came to...that nightmare...that past...nightmare.

He could barely move now...but that smell...the Ogre...

Alpha then felt the Ogre pick him up from the ground. Then was forced to look right at him. He didn't even bother pinning his hands to his sides as his arms just dangled at his sides.

But that damn nightmare...why...why bring that up at the end of this road? Why did he have to look back at that?...wait.

Alpha then remembered something odd about that incident. From what he could recall, his "explosive energy" he released didn't really do that much damage to the house he used to live in with his parents. Yet not only did he hurt the babysitter but...he killed that super villain.

Then, all the years of training and just being afraid of losing control of his power made him realize what it could possibly do. At this point, he had nothing more to lose but he wasn't sure if he could go suicide and just take him out with him.

...but if he was right about how his energy worked...then maybe...

The Ogre roared at his face as if he expected more out of Alpha. But unknown to the Ogre, pulling Alpha close to his face was all the opening he needed. For as Alpha arms dangled at his sides, the hands started to glow. And after the Ogre's face to face roar, Alpha put his glowing hands on the Ogre's head and just released everything he had out of the palm of his hands.

There was another roar as Alpha was immediately dropped onto the ground. Despite being exhausted...despite being right at death's door...Alpha immediately got up, ran up to the Ogre while it was holding it's head in pain...and placed his palms right dead center of it's chest and released anything he had left into it.

Then...there was nothing...no roar...but the Ogre's collapse onto the ground...Alpha just standing there...realizing that, yet again, he had pulled the trigger...and then collapsed onto his back...

《 H. E. R. O. 》

Alpha / K Nine

Interactions: @Hitman ? ? ?

Alpha watched as things broke down. None of the Hero's were in a state of mind to agree on a plan which then led to some of the more powerful ones engage with the Ogres.

During the attacks, Alpha was thrown off balance when Quake had used her powers to knock down a nearby building which then proceeded to throw around a huge dust cloud in their general area. Alpha had tried to figure out where everyone had went in all the chaos when he suddenly was rushed at by a big shadow.

One of the Ogre's, perhaps one of the more intelligent ones, had grabbed Alpha and was now running with him in his arms like he was some sort of a football for him to run in the end zone. Alpha had tried some powered up punches but it did little more than make him grunt in pain. And with the dust cloud, it was probably not likely that anyone saw him get taken.

After some time, he was suddenly dropped and he rolled for a few feet before stopping. Immediately standing up, he then looked around and took stock of his surroundings. And he instantly realized where he was.

He was right there in the middle of a circular arena but it looked old school. Perhaps similar to the ones you would see in ancient Rome. Except all the seats appeared empty and devoid of any sort of life. The Coliseum if you would.

He then looked at the Ogre as it began to...point at him...then give a "thumbs down" before letting out some sort of roar into the sky...

Alpha had pegged this one smarter than the others but it just seemed this one was either very prideful or very egotistical. Either way, this one had singled him out in the chaos and brought him here. Now it wanted to have a proper match of all things.

His body glowing again, Alpha then got ready for a fight...and he had a gut feeling Nero was most likely watching this as well...

《 H. E. R. O. 》

Alpha / K Nine

Alpha was about to engage the ogres to at least buy time when he felt a hand on his shoulder.

He then looked at Kanati for a moment after what he said to him...then slowly started backing up towards him and the rest of the heroes but kept himself in a "power up" state while watching the approaching ogres.

"...agreed...but I was merely trying to buy time...not mindless fighting...", Alpha responded.

Still watching the ogres, he then said, "...decided quickly with a plan...the ogres won't wait for us...and watch what you say out loud...Nero no doubt has cameras and listening devices all around...", he then said to the group.

《 H. E. R. O. 》

Alpha / K Nine

Alpha was out like a light before he noted that something felt off. Then, he awoke in this new strange place. The last thing he remembered was helping with the "after party" of the Blake's residence when most of the party attendee's had left.

Then there was the gas...and like a damn rookie, he was caught.

Understanding the situation, Alpha had just laid there but listened as the super villain now ID'ed himself as Nero while talking to Firebird. He told them about their location. During his speech, Nero had said that the place was "abandoned movie set for a Marcus Aurelius biopic". Alpha knew his way around the city and even the country so he had a good idea as to where EXACTLY they were at.

But even so, it was a moot point if they all wound up dead or couldn't even contact anyone on the outside.

Now standing up after hearing what he guessed was the end of Nero's speech slash laying the rules of his game out, Alpha began checking himself over. Of course, he was disarmed. His police issued side arm and it's hostler were gone along with the shock baton. His tactical vest though was still present so he did have some protection but every one of his communication devices were gone rather obviously.

He then heard Firebird trying to lift the spirits of the captive hero's with his usual smart talk but even Alpha knew how bad their situation was. They were on the super villain's home turf. No doubt he had the place rigged with traps, camera's and listening devices and who knows what else. He had two hero hostages to ensure they all play by his rules. He didn't seem to care about killing hero's either.

Even more so innocents as he then noted the Ogre's approach...noting two corpses of people they had eaten it seemed.

While Alpha did question on how Ogre's even exist, he simply dismissed the thought. They were walking threats and they had every intention of taking their lives if given the chance it seemed.

"...I got these...I'll see how well they fight at least if any want to step in...Firebird...all of you...conserve your strength...I've heard some things about Nero and while he may seem..."strange"...he's rumored to be a Tier B plus villain but that's just a rough estimation. He's a hired villain, usually working with whoever pays him the most..."

That's when Alpha's body began to glow as he tilted his head left and right while balling up his hands into fists.

"...master abductor and a skilled fighter in his own right...his power allows him to manipulate any sort of metal within his range...still...he hasn't done anything so bad to warrant H.E.R.O. intervention from what I read in reports but he's very elusive...still, I wonder who hired him to pull a stunt such as this that could put him on every hero's radar slash hit list...", Alpha said in a monotone voice.

He then began walking towards the Ogre's, just walking past Firebird...

《 H. E. R. O. 》

Alpha / K Nine

K Nine was still standing guard at the front entrance of the Blake von Brandt household and was still inside. His mind was starting to drift back to some cases he was helping with when that train of thought was interrupted.

"Who the hell are you?"

He then looked at the individual, obviously showing signs of intoxication, who turned out to be the host of this party. Firebird himself Blake von Brandt.

"I don't think we've met before? Blake von Brandt. This is my place...my dad's place, but he let me borrow it."

K Nine continued to look at him as he tried to hold a conversation with him. While he was drunk off of his mind, it didn't appear to affect his behavior TOO badly. Honestly, he'd seen much worse drunks when helping police officers respond to public drunk incidents. And that was with normal people most times.

"Nice to meetcha. You want a beer?"

K Nine politely waved the beer away with his right hand saying, "...I'm fine Mr. von Brandt...I imagine there needs to be a sober person in this party at least...plus...I'm...sort of here as a security detail..."

After that statement, he decided to introduce himself. He might as well try to talk to people.

"...I'm simply called Alpha at Hero One...I don't interact much but we've briefly talked a few times...though I know you through your father as K Nine...I volunteer under that name when I work with any law enforcement...I've worked with your father a few times...", K Nine then said.

@Hitman
